 Cover Artist: Charles Mattina                          Artist Charles Mattina, a Southold resident
                                                        originally from Queens, began drawing in
                                                        youth with pen and ink and moved on to
                                                        oils and his current preference, acrylics, in
                                                        college. He has been compared to
                                                        Horace Pippin, a turn-of-the-century artist
                                                        but considers his greatest influence to be
                                                        Edward Hopper, known for his painting
                                                        “Nighthawks.” He is a veteran of many art
                                                        shows, auctions and galleries. His current
                                                        works consisting of ocean, beaches, and
                                                        street scenes can be seen at Greenport’s

and the North Fork!
                              Let te r fro m t h e e d i to r

I t’s never been so exciting out here,
  and it just keeps getting better.
New ideas and ventures, an influx of artists,
craftspeople, wine producers and farmers,
and of course our visitors all combine to
create a really vibrant scene. On
Greenport lets you in on the action and
gives you all the information you need to
plan a great time while you’re here.
If you’ve been to the North Fork wineries
lately, you know they can get a *little* busy.
It can be hard to coordinate a relaxing,
quality experience, what with festive
crowds, busy servers who may not have
time to answer all your questions, and, of
course, the eternal dilemma of who gets to
be the designated driver! Vintage Tours
has created an elegant solution, offering
high-end, small, informative tours that
include wine tasting, lunch and                  Gwendolen Groocock
transportation. We meet the company’s
delightful owner Jo Anne Perry, a long-time
North Fork resident and expert on the local
wine industry.
The Greenport art scene continues to thrive, and a new art collective has sprung up
to join the collectives and galleries that laid the foundation years ago. Here’s a peek
at the art and artists that are part of this evolving collaboration; we wish them the
best of luck!
I’m excited about two great new, fun additions to Greenport this year: the American
Legion Burton Potter Post 185 roller skating rink and the Fire Fighter fireboat
museum. The rink is an old friend to generations of ‘Porters who grew up rolling to the
music and having fun, and it’s back now after almost a decade of community-driven
fundraising and restoration. The Fire Fighter fireboat was the pride of the NY harbor
fleet, and is now retired and moored permanently at the Greenport docks. It has a
fascinating history, and is celebrating its 80th birthday this year. Both attractions are
worth a visit and are kid-friendly.
Looking for things to do in the Greenport area? Just peek inside at On Greenport’s
expanded calendar of events. It’s much more comprehensive than any other
calendar for the area, so keep this little guide handy. More details for these events
and others are at ongreenport.com, where you’ll also find the link to our sister
publication, On Montauk, at onmontauk.com, which gives you everything you need to
know to navigate “The End” of the South Fork.
Enjoy!

Greenport F.A.Q.
The Village of Greenport encompasses only one square mile within the Town of Southold
and has over 2,200 residents. With one of the best natural deep-water harbors on Long
Island, Greenport’s history and economy is tied to the sea. The surrounding waters temper
Greenport’s climate, making it warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.

Greenport Skating Rink Reopens!

R
      oller skating is good, old-fashioned fun. Now, after being closed for many
      years, Greenport’s iconic skating rink is open once again to the public, with
      skating sessions throughout the week for kids, teens and adults, and
availability for private events. It’s a great addition to the Greenport scene.
The rink is located in the Burton Potter American Legion Post 185, a big building right
near Greenport’s boardwalk and the North Ferry to Shelter Island. It’s nothing fancy, but
it has everything it needs. The huge interior has a high ceiling, a newly resurfaced skating
floor, plenty of seating and a concession stand, plus, of course, dozens of skates in all

and started on a long road of
fundraising and renovations.
George D. Costello Sr., a Vietnam
veteran and part-owner of a
successful local construction
company, dedicated years of his
own time to the renovation.
Superstorm Sandy in 2012 flooded
the building and destroyed much
of his work, and he, sadly, also
died that year. It seemed for a
time that the project died with him,
but a new wave of volunteers and
donors took up the cause. The
doors reopened in March this
year.
The renovated space will also
serve as a community center,
hosting fundraisers, weddings,
meetings, private parties and
other events.
